Uomusume Project Transitions Konami Madai to 'Second Tai'
The Uomusume VTuber project, managed by G-Plan Inc., based in Shinagawa, Tokyo, is set to undergo an exciting transformation as it announces the change of talent for beloved VTuber, Konami Madai. This change will see the current talent transition to the new character known as 'Second Tai'. To celebrate this significant moment, a special live stream titled 'Passing the Baton' will take place on December 30, 2025, at 21:00 JST on YouTube.
This unique event not only marks the end of one journey but also the beginning of another as the current talent hands over the baton to Second Tai, who will carry on the legacy of Konami Madai. During the stream, viewers can expect heartfelt reflections about past activities, gratitude messages to fans, and insights from the new talent about their aspirations and future plans as the new 'Konami Madai'.
In the rapidly evolving VTuber industry, it’s common for talent to graduate or debut, focusing solely on individual personalities. However, the Uomusume project takes a different approach by ensuring continuity in the character's narrative and world. This focus on storytelling and character development is a hallmark of the Uomusume project, which aims to nurture the characters in the long term.
This end-of-year stream promises not only to engage long-time supporters of Konami Madai but also aims to present this new approach of character succession to industry stakeholders and media representatives. By doing so, Uomusume seeks to showcase the myriad opportunities that character continuity can offer.
